Yusuhara Marche // Kengo Kuma & Associates
“Yusuhara is widely known as the town facing a main road used by Sakamoto Ryoma, a high-minded warrior of the region who contributed to the initiation of the Meiji Restoration (big political reform). Along the road, there existed a number of greenrooms called “Chad Do” for travelers, which functioned not only as restrooms but also as a kind of cultural salon, serving teas free of charge. As an attempt to respect this history, [Kengo Kuma & Associates] used thatch as the material, which is deeply related to “Cha Do,” which worked as a medium to connect the past with the present.”
Could thatch make a huge comeback as a sustainable cladding system?](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz5nbtxo9e1qbf60lo1_500.jpg)
